Fresh farm-raised littleneck clams sold live by the pound, sourced from Cedar Key Aquaculture Farms in Florida, one of the most productive clam-farming regions in the United States. These tender, flavorful clams are a premium choice for classic preparations like linguine alle vongole, steaming, or serving raw on the half shell. Farm-raised clams are purged during harvesting, resulting in cleaner shells with less sand than wild-caught varieties.
Littleneck clams are the smallest and most tender of the hard-shell clam varieties. They feature delicate, sweet meat that cooks quickly, typically steaming open in 5-8 minutes. Florida's warm climate allows for faster growth compared to northeastern farms, ensuring consistent quality year-round. Perfect for pasta dishes with white wine, garlic, and butter, or simply steamed with herbs and crusty bread for dipping.
Clams are an excellent source of lean protein, iron, and vitamin B12. They are low in fat and calories while being rich in minerals including zinc, selenium, and omega-3 fatty acids.
